Ha, now that's should make them curious.
What makes me curious is you, saying your doing a Straight axle, aka SAS and then saying your not, and trying to be cool and all suspicious like.

x3,4,5,6,7,8,9 Who gives a rats *** what you think. I don't need to be cool at my age, my women loves my crinkled *** no matter what, lol again shhhhhhhhh, or I will cut both your nuts off, now say something, say it you F^%& retard, lol okay agin I don't care.


P.S, all kidding aside, Don't worry about it, I'm just a lost old fool that knows nothing about nothing, My ranger so far has been built by tooth farries and a side line of Bugs Bunny Onlookers "What's up Doc" sounds familiar. :)

What the hell is your problem? Why do you have to be such a pompous *** about everything? Can't you have some nice things to say to people? If you're not going to tell us what you are doing then why did you start this thread now? You could have just as easily started it after you were done and not even had to deal with any of this crap, and you would have been showered with praise for doing something that nobody else has done (that is if you are actually swapping in an ifs setup and not a just a straight axle (a.k.a. SAS)). If you're going to be so secretive to people whom most of which you will never lay eyes on in your life, what was the point of starting this thread now and just being a douche bag to everyone who comes through this thread just wondering what the hell you are doing? Maybe I'm completely off in left field, but I'd wager a guess that just about everyone in this thread is wondering who gave you the right to be an *** to everyone. If you're really as old as you say you are then you have missed a lot of important lessons in maturity, such as the basic kindergarten rule: be kind to others, and the golden rule: do unto others as you would like to be done unto you. People like you are the ones who make me wonder what society is coming to when someone cant even be kind to people they have never even met. Every time you post, it just degrades you further, and you're on a fast track to losing all your support in this thread. So I believe that I can speak on behalf of the rest of us (maybe not), be nice or end thread. Because everyone is tired of getting *****ed out for asking the simple question: What exactly are doing? Get off your high horse.

Thats just my two cents.

Can't you have some nice things to say to people? No, and when they can't be nice to me , than why should I . If you're not going to tell us what you are doing then why did you start this thread now? Many threads are started as a build or in my case a mystery thread; however I was going to put up pics, but if you had read, than you would have understood I don't do well with demands. You could have just as easily started it after you were done and not even had to deal with any of this crap, and you would have been showered with praise for doing something that nobody else has done ... Hold up, wait a minute, let me put some boom in it :) I don't care about praise, although I appreciate the warm remarks from folks, In the end, the ranger is be done to my liking whether folks like it or not. (that is if you are actually swapping in an ifs setup and not a just a straight axle (a.k.a. SAS)). If you're going to be so secretive to people whom most of which you will never lay eyes on in your life, I'M IN NOR-CAL, where you from. what was the point of starting this thread now and just being a douche bag to everyone who comes through this thread just wondering what the hell you are doing? Me being a douche bag, WOW! I thought some of the other members were, but you did not cathc that did you, even though I don't take them serious as this is the internet and I can take a joke unlike some . Maybe I'm completely off in left field, YOU ARE .....but I'd wager a guess that just about everyone in this thread is wondering who gave you the right to be an *** to everyone. Don't need their permission, and I don't give a flying F567 about your's . If you're really as old as you say you ... Oh yea, you can believe I'm 50 and 51 soon :) are then you have missed a lot of important lessons in maturity, Oh Please..... such as the basic kindergarten rule: Please don't lecture me about kindergarden, in my day, your *** would be spanked hardly for talking back to me, lol be kind to others, and the golden rule: do unto others as you would like to be done unto you. Kind, Have you read any of my thread where I have been unkind? NO. This is the only time I get to have a little fun and play the game that some do, and you are getting all whippersnapper on me, chill and go eat your worms. People like you are the ones who make me wonder what society is coming to when someone cant even be kind to people they have never even met. Man you are serious, what's wrong having a bad day, now I am compared to folks in society, because you misread and mis-interpret my fun or shall I say my sense of humor. WOW just WOW! Every time you post, it just degrades you further, Degrade, I have been engraved in our countries historical evens already sir, I have fought in Desert Storm and Irac, I have serve as Le in the states and enjoy this community as much as you, all because I lost my son to some scumbags who decided to take his life for a piece of worthless crap, and than you stand here and say to me I'm a scumbag. Go back and read my threads and you will see that I aint no youngster by any means, but according to you, i should not smile and have a little fun either RIGHT? and you're on a fast track to losing all your support in this thread. Again folks will read no matter what. So I believe that I can speak on behalf of the rest of us (maybe not), be nice or end thread. Okay so my thread should end, because you demand it, Let's put it this way, if my thread closes, than so be it, but that does not me I lost support from the community, What it may mean is the thread is just over :)

Thats just my two cents.
now I have listened and responded to your rant, I am going to respond now, here goes.

This is correct, but it's not what i am doing, I have another ranger that has full sponsorship and it will be built as a pre-runner with some of the currents builds that are going on. I am not allowed right to put up pics as they want everything finished first, but if the members feel as though the thread should close, than either way I'm okay with it. I will hover send you the pics when its's complete. you will be the first to see them.

I have read and followed this thread thoroughly. If you will notice, I was the third one to post. I'm not sure where in this thread it shows why you should have reacted in the way you did. People have been trying to be nice to you, if you havent noticed. Since when do people start mystery threads? I mean, it's your thread so do what you want, but it seems kind of stupid if you ask me. Also, nowhere in this thread does it say anything about how you treat demands. The only thing it demonstrates is you got all worked up over nothing and started all the fighting in this thread. May I direct you to post #44, where you stated:

This was a completely irrational response to the people wondering what was going on in the thread, which is what I assume you were responding to with this post, although it isn't clear at all. If you are doing this "swap" (or whatever it is) for yourself and dont care about what anyone else says, then what was the point of this thread in the first place? Im in Springfield, MO, and around here we treat each other with respect or we button it. You will probably never meet me in your life, but I still was trying to be nice, but when you made a direct strike at me for agreeing with someone asking a question (Post #53), that's when you crossed the line. You could have simply answered the question, but instead you chose to react irrationally again and say:

What is your deal? I'm not sure what I was supposed to be catching about the other members, but if all your reactions are "jokes", you have issues. Well your day in kindergarten was not my day in kindergarten. If you would have reacted as irrationally the way you have in this thread, in my day they would have put you in an asylum because they would deem you mentally unstable. I have already cited more than one instance in this thread when you have been unkind. I don't know what game you're playing, but it is ridiculous. And probably the reason why you think im "getting all whippersnapper" on you is because to you I am. I still dont understand where eating worms comes into this whole argument. If this is your sense of humor, you have bigger problems. Of course you can't understand why your sense of humor could be misleading, but trust me it is. Smiling and having fun is all well and good but if this is your idea of fun, keep it off a personal level. Don't even talk to me about scumbags, I held my twin brother in my arms as he bled to death from being shot 6 times over an old pair of shoes. I dont expect me telling you that to change anything, im just throwing it out there as food for thought. I understand your situation with your son fully, and I'm terribly sorry, but I don't see why that needed to be included in this thread. I thank you for serving and fighting for our great nation, but just because you fought for the country, doesn't give you the right to tell me off and then throw that out there and expect me to say sorry for bothering you. I don't demand the end of your thread, I simply said be nice or you should end the thread because nobody wants to hear more of your irrational dribble. That was just a suggestion and maybe could be taken as advice or criticism, not a demand. I did not say that you were losing support in the community, just the thread.

I'm not going to argue anymore, and I suggest you do the same.

I don' expect you to **** young man, and I don't care about your rant, you still have not proved anything, In my eyes joking and having a little fun is what I was doing, but you seem to be the only one taking things too serious. your twin brother, man that's some screwed stuff, and my blessing are to you, but I have held many in my arms in desert storm and irac, I don't need or want anyone feeling sorry for me, you think I served this country for the sake of you folks feeling sorry, Hell No! most don't give a rats *** for most veterans anyways. But I'm done ranting and going back and forth, you sound like someone I see everyday I enter the outside world, you know who that is, Someone who takes things way to serious, In many ways I should not be still alive, But if you knew me in person, you would quickly change your mined about me, I am not at all crazy, off my rocker, weird, immature. In fact I outdo most half my age. anyways i off to bed and sadden you took my thread or my jokes to personally, but in the end, It's still my thread.

To each his own. I bid you adieu. Good luck with your project, I hope all goes well, I can't wait to see it when it's done, maybe I will send along my warm response where appropriate, but for now. Caio.

there are many more people at fault for ruining this thread than the OP. Maybe if everyone would just leave this thread alone until there is some progress.

Thanks so much for your understanding and wording in your post, This is exactly what did it; however my seem childish behavior was a direct results of those who made fun of the thread and those who demanded to see pics, and I will take responsibility for going overboard with the antics, but darn it's was nice while it lasted. I will try and sneak some pics today at the shop, and i will send them to you and razoredge if I successfully get them, Please promise me that you will not post them as they are serious about the nature of the photos getting out before the project is finished. Thanks

The speculation went crazy, I know that this particular thread may have hit a good nerve for 2 wheel drive rangers , but I did not expect to post, and return with replies so darn fast. WOW! Razor since the death of my son and my 1 year old granddaughter, Something sparked in me to finish the complete build on his ranger, You see i DRIVE 2 OTHER VEHICLES AND one is a 2008 MB CL550 Lo rinser AND A 2007 BMW 6-Series, Now when I started to do this project for my son when he was still alive, my love for American cars returned, I found myself wrenching and creatively fabbing things like a former younger me. It was exhilarating the least. Now I have a brother in law that owns a huge truck shop in town, been around for more than 30 years, He approached me with the sponsor idea and had a meeting with 3 other big name brands in the biz.

now may I remind you that although I started to love american cars again, I was not prepared to turn my son's ranger into something different than already planned, but my brother in law said we don't have to do that, let's take one of your other rangers and use it for the project, I said Okay got and since I have 3 other wrecked rangers on my land that are really all in great shape, considering the damage. I was like WOW, this would be great to do some high tech sort of stuff to a ranger and be able to leap 5-10 in the air when done, I than got that second spark I needed to get me back into the ranger and continue what I was set out to do.

Wow! who would have thought I would love the ranger so much that I sometimes go to the garage and actually sit in it and talk to my son in spirit. Now I have no interior pics to put up yet, but remember the member name "RWENZING" I am in that same process of making my interior look just as good. Thanks agin and i will forward pics.

P.S rAZOReDGE If you could erase my rebuttal post to the individual or individuals that were going back and forth in a debate or whatever it was I would appreciate it as it will allow me to get back on topic or those that really want to see the project, yet are very patient. Thanks you!
